Metallica: The Unforgiven (1991) – Music Video

So I know that I do post a lot about Metallica… But the truth is, is they are one of my favorite bands of all time… With a majority of their songs being songs I absolutely love!

Besides the fact that this band, you can tell has been around forever and knows what they like to play, and what their fans like to hear… They are extremely talented musicians! I have heard them play almost hardcore punk songs, western songs, and even some very dark metal songs that will either put you to tears or disgust the hell out of you!

This isn’t a tribute to them… That day will come, but we are certainly not there yet… But if you have heard their brand of heavy metal, that not only rocks, but some how feels right, I highly recommend doing so! They come from the same time as some of the greats like, ‘Megadeth’, ‘Pantera’ and ‘Judas Priest’ when they all were having their heyday… And they do am amazing job in represtenting the very best in what heavy metal has to offer!

So if you have heard their music before, then here is a song I know you are going to love, if you haven’t then, this song is a personal fav of mine, and if you are being introduced to there music, it is a great song to get in to!

And if you liked that, then you are absolutely going to enjoy the lyrics to Metallica’s, ‘The Unforgiven’!

New blood joins this earth,
And quickly he’s subdued.
Through constant pained disgrace
The young boy learns their rules.

With time the child draws in.
This whipping boy done wrong.
Deprived of all his thoughts
The young man struggles on and on he’s known
A vow unto his own,
That never from this day
His will they’ll take away.

What I’ve felt,
What I’ve known
Never shined through in what I’ve shown.
Never be.
Never see.
Won’t see what might have been.

What I’ve felt,
What I’ve known
Never shined through in what I’ve shown.
Never free.
Never me.
So I dub thee unforgiven.

They dedicate their lives
To running all of his.
He tries to please them all –
This bitter man he is.

Throughout his life the same –
He’s battled constantly.
This fight he cannot win –
A tired man they see no longer cares.

The old man then prepares
To die regretfully –
That old man here is me.

What I’ve felt,
What I’ve known
Never shined through in what I’ve shown.
Never be.
Never see.
Won’t see what might have been.

What I’ve felt,
What I’ve known
Never shined through in what I’ve shown.
Never free.
Never me.
So I dub thee unforgiven.

What I’ve felt,
What I’ve known
Never shined through in what I’ve shown.
Never be.
Never see.
Won’t see what might have been.

What I’ve felt,
What I’ve known
Never shined through in what I’ve shown.
Never free.
Never me.
So I dub thee unforgiven.
